A century of coir fibre exports

With a history of over 150 years as a quality coir fibre exporter, we are a company that grows with the trends of each era – molding our eco friendly products to suit your purpose. We are proud to be one of the world’s largest exporters of coir fibre and fibre-related products. We enjoy creating green oriented products in line with our company policy of being eco friendly.

Our environmentally friendly source

As a Sri Lankan coir fibre supplier, we are guaranteed with plentiful resources of our core product – the coconut tree. The outer layer of the coconut, often referred to as coconut husk, provides the coir fibre. With varying methods of extraction, we convert this coconut husk into a useable, eco friendly product with a range of versatile functions. We ensure you a 100% natural product that is environmentally friendly in every aspect possible.

Production facilities across the island

Covering ground from the southern to the northwestern provinces of Sri Lanka, our company has five factories based in Kotugoda, Nathandiya, Wennappuwa, Bingiriya and Madampe. These strategic locations ensure a good supplier base for natural coconut coir fibre. Each factory operates as an independent unit. Our Kotugoda factory and the office location is a particularly strategic choice as it is in close proximity to Katunayake International Airport and the Colombo Port.
